Description: 1969 Global Imports #7D HARMON KILLEBREW (Twins) FGS 9 (OC) MINTHarmon Killebrew was one of the most feared sluggers of the 1960s – and when he retired in 1975, he had accumulated more home runs than any right-handed batter in American League history.It was on the high school ball fields of the small mid-western town of Payette Idaho, where Killebrew was discovered by the Senators in 1954. The 17-year-old slugger signed on with the club for a large bonus and the rules of the day dictated that the team had to keep the youngster on the major league roster for two years or risk losing him to another team.In 1959, at age 23, Killebrew had a breakout year at the hot corner, hitting an AL-best 42 home runs to go with 105 RBI. He was named to the first two of his 13 All-Star Games that year.Over the course of his 22-year MLB career, Killebrew put together eight 40-home run seasons and 44 multiple home run games. He led the AL in home runs x6, walks x4 and RBI x3. He led the Twins to the Postseason x3, including in 1969 when he was named the American League's Most Valuable Player. Killebrew was elected to the Hall of Fame in 1984 and passed away on May 17, 2011.I have other vintage sport memorabilia up for sale (Football, Basketball, Baseball, Hockey, etc.) and I offer discounts on multiple items.
